        mine had to settle for about 2 weeks, trust me. I have seen posts about this before and they will settle.

          1) i hope u put the right springs in the front/back 2) they do neeed to settle but i mean common what settle 2 in lol.....

          give it 500 miles of easy driving or 300miles of rough driving and it should be settled enough....if it still looks off, make sure the install was done correctly and the right springs are in the right place.

            the rear will settle before the front because the spring rates are lower, and you have a larger softer spring...the harder smaller springs up front take longer to settle

              Yup, it took about 2 months for mine to settle and they still weren't low enough for me. If it still isn't low enough for you, get some Konis yellows and lower it more to your liking.

                agreed, Koni Yellows will really drop your cb...

                but anyways, what struts did you use?

                  I am also wondering if you put the rears on the fronts.
                  I have neuspeed sports, which are less of a drop than race, and I noticed the drop immediately. I've had them about 9 months and havn't really noticed any significant amount of settling.

                      It took mine like a day or so to settle after i install my springs. It didnt take that long we had some bumpy country roads out back at our campus and i drove my car through there so it settled in about a day.

                        it takes some time, i installked my Tein S-Tech yesterday and it has gone down to 2 finger fender gap in the front and back went down instantly on mine after i was done. I am expecting it to go lower in a about a week or so. Just wait a little bit.

                              how low was your car to begin with? Did you have springs/shocks that were completly shot and made your car look lower?
